Mother and Two Young Children Injured in Lowell Pedestrian Accident

A mother and two of her children were transported to Lowell General Hospital after the three of them were struck by a motor vehicle while crossing the street on Sunday. The woman was pushing her kids, ages 2 and 4, in a carriage when the Lowell pedestrian accident happened. The 4-year-old boy was thrown from the carriage and sustained head injuries. The Massachusetts pedestrian accident happened in a Lowell crosswalk.

The driver of the motor vehicle, Chamroeun Theam, was charged with OUI. Theam already has one previous drunk driving conviction on his record.

This is the second Lowell pedestrian accident to happen within a week. A 12-year-old pedestrian got hurt when Michelle P. Medeiros struck him at a highway intersection. The 17-year-old motorist was rushing to a hair appointment

Kelvin Savanhmixay was thrown 20 feet during the Lowell pedestrian accident. The sixth grader sustained neck injuries, head injuries, and suffered internal bleeding. Savanhmixay will likely have to undergo a number of surgeries.

Medeiros was charged with hit-and-run for leaving a Lowell car crash site involving a Massachusetts personal injury. The teenager says she didn’t know she had struck the boy.

Pedestrian accidents continue to be a major cause of accidental deaths involving kids. While children cannot file injury claims in Massachusetts, a parent or guardian can file an injuries to minor lawsuit on their behalf. Pedestrian injuries can be extremely painful and result in internal bleeding, permanent brain damage, paralysis, disfigurement, and even death.
